Global Protected Areas as refuges for amphibians and reptiles under climate change

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Protected Areas (PAs) are the cornerstone of biodiversity conservation. Here, we collated distributional data for >14,000 (~70% of) species of amphibians and reptiles (herpetofauna) to perform a global assessment of the conservation effectiveness of PAs ...
